Abstract
HERNANDEZ-TORRES,, Juan Manuel et al. Splanchnic vein thrombosis as a manifestation of latent myeloproliferative neoplasm associated with sticky platelet syndrome. Rev. colomb. Gastroenterol. [online]. 2022, vol.37, n.2, pp.237-241. Epub Aug 25, 2022. ISSN 0120-9957. https://doi.org/10.22516/25007440.779.
Vein thrombosis of unusual sites such as the splanchnic region continues to be not only a diagnostic but also a therapeutic challenge for the clinician due to its manifestation and associated pathologies. Latent JAK2 (Janus kinase 2) positive myeloproliferative neoplasm associated with sticky platelet syndrome is unusual. We present a clinical case of a 38-year-old female patient who presented with sudden onset abdominal pain of a possible vascular origin. Splanchnic thrombosis was diagnosed in latent myeloproliferative neoplasm by identifying the JAK2V617F mutation and sticky platelet syndrome via platelet aggregometry. Off-label anticoagulation with rivaroxaban 20 mg/day was administered. During her outpatient follow-up, she did not suffer any new thrombotic episodes.
